Pondering my visit to Golders Green Cemetery next weekend (to pay my respects to Bram Stoker as part of the centenary symposium at Keats House) I noticed with dismay that Wyndham Lewis had somehow been missed from the list of noteworthy 'residents' on the Wikipedia entry for the crematorium. That'll be my first ever contribution to Wikipedia then...

Thanks Ivan. There is a salutary tale of academic intervention in Wikipedia at http://chronicle.com/article/The-Undue-Weight-of-Truth-on/130704/ 'The 'Undue Weight' of Truth on Wikipedia' by Timothy Messer-Kruse. Also, the De Morgan Foundation has a new blog post about 'Stoker as one of the lucky few who had the chance to interview the quiet and reserved William De Morgan' tile designer at http://www.demorgan.org.uk/blog/bram-stokers-de-morgan
